APFC Panels – Smart Solution for Power Factor Improvement

AAVAD Instrument Pvt. Ltd. manufactures advanced Automatic Power Factor Correction (APFC) Panels designed to reduce electricity costs, improve power quality, and enhance overall energy efficiency in industrial and commercial electrical systems.

APFC Panels play a critical role in balancing the power factor of state electricity boards and industrial power networks. With rising electricity costs, maintaining an optimal power factor has become essential for industries to avoid penalties and reduce unnecessary energy losses.

How Does APFC Panel Work in Industries?

In industrial environments, inductive loads such as induction motors generate reactive power, leading to poor power factor. APFC Panels identify this reactive power demand and inject compensating reactive power into the grid through capacitor banks.

By continuously sensing load variations and switching capacitors accordingly, APFC Panels:

  • Neutralize reactive power

  • Improve power factor automatically

  • Reduce line losses and energy wastage

  • Prevent penalties imposed by utility providers


Why APFC is Important in Industrial or Commercial LT Panels?

In commercial and industrial installations, power factor deterioration is a common issue. Manual correction methods often result in inefficiencies, higher losses, and inconsistent performance.

By integrating APFC Panels into LT distribution systems, industries can:

  • Maintain optimal power factor automatically

  • Reduce electricity bills

  • Improve system efficiency

  • Avoid power factor penalties

  • Ensure stable and reliable electrical operation AAVAD Instrument Pvt. Ltd. is a trusted manufacturer and supplier of high-quality APFC Panels in India. Our panels are engineered with precision, built using premium components, and customized to meet specific industrial requirements—delivering reliable performance, long service life, and maximum energy savings.

Description

AAVAD APFC Panels are intelligent power factor correction solutions designed to reduce electricity costs, improve power quality, and enhance energy efficiency in industrial and commercial applications.

Types of APFC Panel

AAVAD offers two major types of APFC Panels:

APFC Panel

An Automatic Power Factor Correction Panel that continuously monitors and improves the power factor in real time.

RTPFC Panel
